The genus name of Rehderodendron is in honour of Alfred Rehder (1863–1949), a German-American botanical taxonomist and dendrologist who worked at the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University.[2] It was first described and published in Sinensia Vol.2 on page 109 in 1932.[3]
The species are small deciduous trees growing to 10–15 m tall.[1]
40 fossil endocarps of †Rehderodendron custodum from the early Miocene, have been found in the Kristina Mine at Hrádek nad Nisou in North Bohemia, the Czech Republic.[6]
